 * Have you ever considered adding a shortcode method to handle content restriction?
 * I like how this plugin works at the page level, but a little more fine-grained
   control that a shortcode would provide would be useful. This would enable the
   building of a single page (a homepage, for example, or a user dashboard) where
   the content displayed depends on the user role. A site owner could have 2 or 
   3 blocks of content each wrapped in a user role specific shortcode.
 * This would make the plugin a little more comprehensive in how it displays and
   protects content.

 * That is not a bad idea! Thank you.
 * It will be coming to a repo near you soon (well, as soon as I get time to work
   on it).
